There’s something about watching old video footage that brings about nostalgia. That’s especially true when we’re viewing something familiar, like our very own Virginia Beach. While many things have changed over the course of American history since the taping of this video in the summer of 1975, you’ll be delighted to see how some things haven’t changed a bit. The swimsuits and quality of technology may have evolved, but the energy of a family trip to the beach is the same as ever. In this short three-minute video, you’ll see a few clips of the shoreline, swimsuit-clad passersby, pool games, and even a dolphin or two. While this vintage video doesn’t have any sound, you can practically hear the familiar shrieks of laughter and ocean waves crashing on the shore.
